I'm looking to get a bit more speed, separation, lower-end control and refinement. Is this a worthy jump? Currently my DAC is a Modi Multibit.

PRESS RELEASE   Quote:         This was first revealed (as far as I can tell) February 1st but I didn't see a topic about it here. Has an interesting look at least.

And also a bunch of earbuds.   http://en.akihabaranews.com/82358/headphones/sony-japan-introduces-three-new-headphones       Quote:     XB700 fans rejoice!   70mm drivers seems....large, though.

Searches on this forum might reveal a plethora of good amps for say a K701, or an HD650, but unless you fall into certain brackets, the prospect of selecting the right amp, or at least a good one, is more than a little intimidating. Every time I search for one, a few more pop up and the list...

I've owned three different pairs of DT990s 2005 (250Ω) headphones over the last four years. The first pair broke after a year and I had to get them replaced through Beyer, the second pair had balancing issues between the drivers that I put up with for about three years until I just went ahead...

A few years ago my DT990 broke and I had to get it replaced. Beyer was very prompt in sending me a new one but I noticed pretty much from the get-go that the very highend of the frequency spectrum seemed biased towards the right ear, and this has been driving me nuts all this time, but I tried...

So my DT990 2005's headband has turned to a sticky, melting, disintegrating mess and I'm looking to replace it. Beyerdynamic sells a replacement headband but it's the old Pro model with the snap buttons. I'm wondering if anyone has tried to use this older, thicker headband on any newer model...

So I made a headphone stand out of wood for my DT990s, and after a while I noticed every time I removed them after resting for the night, the headband stuck to the wood, almost like it was adhesive, or had melted to it slightly. So I placed a piece of cloth between the wood and the head band...

I'm getting a bit of buzzing with bass frequencies, so I'd like to remove the foam screen to clean out any dust on the driver. Looking closely, it appears to be using a twist-lock mechanism to secure it in place, but I'd rather not apply any force without knowing for sure first. Anyone have...

Is it enough to drive a 250 ohm DT990 ('05)? I've got about $500 to split between different pieces of audio equipment. Right now I've got an Audigy 2 Value and it's pretty good, but I could upgrade to an X-Fi XtremeMusic for $80-100, Little Dot Micro+ and the DT990 and fit in my budget. OR I...

Sennheiser HD205 This is a much-needed review of the relatively new HD205 headphones. It’s not so much a replacement for the 201 or 202 as it is meant to be a step up in Sennheiser’s lineup. Quick Specs: Response: 14-20,000 Hz Impediance: 32 ohm Sensitivity: 112 dB Design and Build...

...in Florida. Preferably the central region. Anyone here live in this state?

I guess I'll attempt a mini review, since apparently not many people have this model, but keep in mind I don't have a lot to compare to, nor am I articulate in expressing what I hear, so try to bear with me. These phones (which I bought for a little over $60) are supposedly made for accuracy...

The headphone connector. Does it make a difference if it's gold plated, or is that just sort of a gimmick?

We're talking around $50. These would be used for everything, music, movies, gaming, used on the computer, on CD players, other portable players and portable handheld games, you name it. I'd like them to sound good especially for music, because although I'm not constantly listening to it, I do...
